She tried to love him, to stand beside him through everything, but he wasn’t willing to love her the way she deserved.
She gave him all of herself, her time and always her heart but all he ever made her feel like was another option in his busy schedule.
Sighing, she looked out the rain drenched window and shook her head.
She knew what she had to do- not because she didn’t love him, but because she loved herself more.
Somewhere along the way of falling in love, she had lost herself and what made her happy.
Now, she was waking up to a different reality- one that screamed at her to move on, close the door and never look back.
Sadly, as she watched his number pop up on her phone, she knew he’d never really understand why she was leaving.
Pressing decline on his call, she exhaled loudly ..feeling the strangest feeling of relief.
No more fighting, defending herself or trying to convince him why she needed more.
She never should have to tell someone that loves her how to make her feel special..
So she decided to get back to that person that knew exactly how amazing she was:
Herself.
She had pushed her self respect and pride aside for too long chasing the affection of a man that was too wrapped up in himself and his selfish needs to ever put her first.
So, she chose a new path that she should have started down a long time ago.
Leaving him and finding herself.
She knew she’d never be able to truly stop loving him, but she had to finally start loving herself more.
It would hurt, she knew , as her heart would cry out for her to call him, text him..anything..
But she knew it was time to let him go.
She’d been unhappy too long, so leaving him for herself was exactly where she needed to be heading.
She knew it would take to heal and slowly let the memories fade away, but she knew she had to..
She deserved better-
No, she deserved the best, and she was done allowing anyone to treat her any less.
It was time to start falling in love with being alive and herself,
One beautiful moment, day and dream at a time.
She smiled broadly.
“I got this,” she said proudly.
And finally,
On a warm autumn evening much like any other,
Something most incredible happened to her:
she was now on her way to being free,
Being her own woman and totally happy..
Just the way she had wanted all those years ago.
